About the Role

This role is designed to provide a structured development pathway into Client Lifecycle Management (CLM), combining hands-on experience in client onboarding, regulatory compliance, data, technology, and business transformation with a recognised Level 3 Financial Services Administrator Apprenticeship.

As a Level 3 Client Lifecycle Management Apprentice, you'll gain hands-on experience supporting the onboarding of new clients, maintaining regulatory compliance, and delivering an excellent client experience. You'll learn about key areas such as client onboarding, KYC, AML, client reviews, operational reporting, and process improvement, building the knowledge and skills needed for a successful career in financial services.

Working alongside teams across Relationship Management, Compliance, Legal, and Operations, you'll contribute to a range of projects, including digital transformation, AI, and workflow automation initiatives, while developing valuable professional, technical, and communication skills.

Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.

Apprenticeships include time away from working for specialist training. You’ll study to gain professional knowledge and skills.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
